Homework for Tuesday, Nov. 5 AND Project Info

Today is my super, duper busy day, remember? (staff meeting, dinner, etc.)  AND I am getting ready to fly out of here by 3:00 a.m.  This is the updated evening version and the last one I will be writing tonight.  Check here tomorrow for any further updates; I will try to return emails sometime Wednesday afternoon.

Assignment:  The Job Crisis (A)
Be careful with Kyle, he can be wicked ... wickedly simple and straightforward, but you need to read the information carefully and answer the question as it's asked.  Remember, these aren't trick questions, but if you read it too quickly you won't answer it correctly.  (think candy points ...)
There is a copy of this worksheet HERE.
Due Wednesday

Decimals Project
You will have 3 days in class to complete your project, so you will want to use your time efficiently.  You will also log what you do every day as well as a homework log.  But first ...
The three data sets:
 - Hands Down - (10 sets of estimates of measurement)
 - Paper Airplanes - (10 different sets of flight data and box plots)
 - Mini Me - (your measurements, you in mini-you)

On Wednesday you will write your introduction or your plan.  As you are working on your candy point, Lori will give you the plan sheet so you can get started.
-As soon as you have your introduction written, she will give you your packet of data (depending on which project theme you choose) and you can get started!
-There WILL be some supplies available in class, but obviously the better prepared you are, the more quickly you can get to work and get things done.
-This is the RUBRIC for this project.  Use it to plan your time, come prepared for working in class, and to make sure you have all of the required elements covered.

To include with your finished project:  The plan/ introduction, the data you USED (both new and old) all of your visuals, your daily logs and time management grade, your homework record, and your conclusion along with any other written narratives that you would like to include to complete your project.
This project is yours to create, so have fun with it!
Due Tuesday, November 12 for full credit

Stay tuned!
